It's pretty simple - sunglasses are my thing. Everyone has one thing or another - I'm passionate about the product, the brand, and the history. As far as the collection goes, it's an investment that continues to appreciate in value.

I've definitely been collecting the wrong things lol, but I like what I like and money isn't an issue when it comes to my collection. It's all good, though.

I have no one who asks me this.

Do I need a new pair of glasses? No. Do I want them? Hell yes. Can I afford them? Maybe if I sell some of my other junk.

Amen, you speak my language (and I'm guessing most everyone else who is here as well).

I agree, everyone has their "thing". She just doesn't get it.

With my wife - she doesn't and will never "get it" but as long as I'm responsible financially with the collection she's fine. It's gotten better over time with a couple things helping... i.e. buying a pair of glasses for $80 on a local classified and selling it on eBay for $600 in less than 24 hours (gotta love when you find a good deal on a duplicate - easier to sell that way). It's a healthier addiction than many as well (booze, drugs, fast cars, video games, etc).

I also have a friend that's a member on here and we've had some big shipments sent together. When his "half" is 30 pairs and my "half" is 15 pairs, it makes my addiction seem pretty reasonable. Thanks @Nathandlarson!!!

Can't forget Hookers and Cocaine!

I didn't forget those... I'm big into both of those things, especially when combined.

Maybe I can have your wife talk to mine..........

"Hi honey I'm home. - How many beers did you drink? - 15, but Joe had 30, I only had half of what he did" I'm going to try this see how well it works.......LOL

It was a silly question, but felt it necessary
